Deficiency of Interleukin-1 Receptor Antagonist: A Case with Late Onset Severe Inflammatory Arthritis, Nail Psoriasis with Onychomycosis and Well Responsive to Adalimumab Therapy by Necil Kutukculer, Anne Puel, Sanem Eren Akarcan, Kunihiko Moriya, Neslihan Edeer Karaca, Melanie Migaud, Jean-Laurent Casanova, Guzide Aksu

“…The DIRA disease can lead to death from multiple organ failures and if recognized early, the treatment with replacement of the deficient protein with biologic agents induces rapid and complete remission. Therefore, clinical symptoms should be learned exactly by the pediatricians, pediatric rheumatologists, and immunologists; and molecular analysis targeting this defect must be performed as early as possible.…”

Posttranslational Nitration of Tyrosine Residues Modulates Glutamate Transmission and Contributes to N-Methyl-D-aspartate-Mediated Thermal Hyperalgesia by Carolina Muscoli, Concetta Dagostino, Sara Ilari, Filomena Lauro, Micaela Gliozzi, Erlisa Bardhi, Ernesto Palma, Vincenzo Mollace, Daniela Salvemini

“…Intrathecal injection of PN decomposition catalyst FeTM-4-PyP5+ prevents nitration and overall inhibits NMDA-mediated thermal hyperalgesia. Our study supports the hypothesis that nitration of key proteins involved in the regulation of glutamate transmission is a crucial pathway used by PN to mediate the development and maintenance of NMDA-mediated thermal hyperalgesia. …”
